Summary:
A look at the people and events that have created Chinese
rock
& roll. Rebellious, individualistic, and explosive,
rock
and roll seems incongruent with modern Chinese society. However, as the
music
has evolved from a Western import into something uniquely Chinese, it has been shaped by the nation's unique system and its relationship with the outside world. As it tracks the
music
's long journey from the Mao years to present day, this account considers the people and the events that have created Chinese
rock
's identity. Including interviews with musicians, journalists, and industry experts, this book demonstrates that chinese
rock
may be ready to smash its guitars.
